According to Osho, tears in discourse are not weakness but the flowering of feeling—an overflow of love, joy, gratitude, compassion, or even purifying sadness. Feeling stands deeper than thought, close to the witnessing center and devotion. When words touch the heart’s unknown, their abundance spills as tears, cleansing and transforming. Such weeping reflects the listener’s heartfulness, not the orator’s power.
People cry because their hearts are touched so deeply that the feeling overflows.
